Publisher's Synopsis
Ticking minutes that unwind into aging faces and the loss of youth are passive against the primal experiences that imprint their virtues and vices onto the stories and mythologies that become our individual lives. Restless Flesh is a collection of moments that pile one on top of the other to form a complete whole, in the same way that the nine numerals equate into one cycle. Elizabeth denies the depths of her sexuality, while Kari settles on resolution in her dead-end career. Powerful Mark learns the limits of his strength, and a non-human being earns consciousness. Each character in this collected work struggles to embrace a catalyst into fulfilling his or her highest potential, and we all benefit from a vicarious experience.
